In a bold move that screams ‘new year, new me,’ Iranian hackers have decided to up their game with the launch of their latest cyber operation, dubbed ‘SpearSpecter’. Because why just snoop when you can snoop with style and a snazzy codename?

The hackers, apparently tired of binge-watching spy thrillers, have now taken matters into their own hands, targeting defense and government entities. It’s rumored that the attack was planned over several intense meetings at a secret location affectionately known as the ‘Basement of Clandestine Shenanigans’.

According to sources, the digital masterminds behind this operation, APT42, were seen high-fiving each other while sporting hoodies that read ‘SpearSpecter: We Ghosted You’. Their enthusiasm was apparent as they aim to make espionage the hottest trend since TikTok dances.

Meanwhile, government officials are reportedly scouring thrift stores for ‘Certified Hacker Hunter’ merchandise to boost team morale. And as the SpearSpecter saga continues, stay tuned to see if anyone decides to throw a ‘you’ve been hacked’ party to let off some steam.
